VEGAN TOSTADAS WITH AVOCADO CREMA

Tostadas are traditionally prepared with chicken or pork, but this vegan version is just as tasty. You can use just about any vegan protein you have (smoked tempeh, soy crumbles, vegan chorizo, crumbled veggie burger, etc).

Once the ingredients are prepped, the tostadas are really quick to put together. You can even lay out all the ingredients and have your guests prepare them according to their tastes! You’ll likely have a bit of crema left over, so serve along side the dish for those that like an extra dollop.

This dish is perfect for a hearty meal for one, a satisfying snack for 2, or as an appetizer for a crowd!

To make the avocado crema, place all ingredients in a blender and pulse until smooth. Set aside. Divide refried beans and spread on each tostada. Top with corn, chopped tomatoes, green onions, crumbled protein, cilantro, and jalapeno. Immediately before serving, top with fresh crema.
